Potter guitars are one of a kind.  Built one at a time, the uniquely, small shop specializes in fingerstyle steel string guitars, repairs, and custom lutherie, with an annual production of less than 10 guitars.

​

Each guitar is treated individually, and built to be as responsive as possible.  Careful attention is paid to the selection of wood for soundboards, hand- splitting of brace wood, and final tuning of the top and back.  

​

The goal at Potter Guitars is to design instruments that are constructed to last for generations and have: 1) lasting sustain, 2) a sensitivity to a light touch, 3) a rich, focused bass and soaring, bell-like trebles.

​

​

Potter Guitars is located in Willits, CA approximately 2.5 hours north of San Francisco in Mendocino County.
